After the INGRAM MICRO INC. incident: what to do and your options

What should I do after getting the INGRAM MICRO INC. data breach notice?
Keep the letter and the envelope, and note the date it arrived. Freeze your credit with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, change any passwords the notice mentions, and sign up for any free credit monitoring the letter offers. Then check whether you may have a claim.
Did INGRAM MICRO INC. offer free credit monitoring?
Look for an enrollment code in your INGRAM MICRO INC. notice. Companies that offer free credit monitoring after a breach usually include it there, with a deadline to activate. Enrolling does not give up your right to bring a claim.
Can I sue INGRAM MICRO INC. over the data breach?
It depends on what was exposed, the law in Illinois and your own state, and whether you've been harmed. Most people take part through a class action rather than suing alone. Keep your notification letter — it's the proof that connects you to the breach.
Do I need a INGRAM MICRO INC. data breach lawyer or attorney?

Is the INGRAM MICRO INC. data breach letter legit or a scam?

How much could a INGRAM MICRO INC. data breach settlement or claim be worth?
